Memorial Address (the song)
Has Ayu written this song specifically for someone like untitled~for her~? I remember reading somewhere it was for her grandmother but I'm not sure...
The lyrics are so touching... I'm in love with it

Speculation says it's about her father, but nothing has ever been confirmed as far as I know

But it's also one of the songs that she cries while performing.
Songs that Ayu has performed and cried (that I know of): Memorial address walking proud untitled ~for her~ appears @ AT 07 (not too sure of this) End roll @ AT 08 (could be the result of fake crying) Most Who... performances Most MY ALL performances Most of these songs are either about her family or a lover. Though it's really not clear if Ma is for her dad or whatever but it's clear that the song means a lot to her. And the most interesting song there is 'walking proud'. I don't think it's a love/to-family song... it's very personal and reflective. I like this song and when she cried...

I personally think that it's for her dad, but was she even born when her dad walked out? I don't know...

Once I read she wrote that song because of her father who left her house when Ayu was a child and never came back...

She was 3 when he left, and she recalls going fishing with him in Fukuoka

I love this Memorial Address performance, it's so touching. I always cry in Who... Performances T__T
Does someone knows if her father is still alive? |

I'd rather say walking proud AT05 was fake than end roll AT08, looked more real to me

No, untitled ~for her~ is for her friend that died (last year?) because in the booklet for Guilty it shows a birthday and a death date.

wait.. Isn't Memorial Address about her father when he died? I read that here on AHS.
Here are the translated lyrics, courtesy of Anime Lyrics dot Com: Spoiler:
It's so sad. Now that I think about it, this song could also be about her grandmother. But the explanation I've once read here is that she never knew her father (except for a faint memory) and that suddenly, after haven't seeing him for years, she got a phone call saying her father died. But I don't know if that's true, and I guess no one will know. just what I've read. [BTW, I thought End Roll in AT08 was so fake, I actually sighed and rolled my eyes, which I've never done before during her performances] |

If you read the lyrics with the relationship between Ayu and her dad in mind...it really is a powerful song. Too bad she never confirmed herself any of this. We can only speculate...I don't even know how people came up with the connection in the first place, besides the lyrics.
